You are using git-flash-videos in the command. The script is called
get-flash-videos. Carefully notice the spelling ("i" vs. "e"). There are two
misspellings of this kind as far as I can tell in what you provide.

Yes, I was shortening things and made a typo. It has nothing to do with the
bug though.
I reran the steps and made a pastebin:

Please check the shebang (#!...) line in the script.

More info:
I tried running it with perl instead of relying on "#!/usr/bin/env perl" to
figure things out correctly. Here is what I get:
~/downloads/get-flash-videos $ perl get_flash_videos
Can't locate Module/Find.pm in @INC (@INC contains:

That's a recent change, Module::Find is missing it is now used in URLFinder.pm,
was added as a dependency. Should be available as a package. there are a few
change that require extras. Time::HiRes required in Channel 4, should be
present as in perl core. ffmpeg or avconv is required for Stvplay.pm - one is
very likely to be present if using mplayer. See
http://code.google.com/p/get-flash-videos/downloads/list
get-flash-videos-1.24-git-20130212 comment.
Also Makefile.PL, has this if building from git...
PREREQ_PM => {
URI => 0,
'LWP::UserAgent' => 0,
'WWW::Mechanize' => 0,
'LWP::Protocol::https' => 0,
'LWP::Protocol::socks' => 0,
'Module::Find' => 0,
},
Install instructions do need changing to include Module::Find.

I installed the modules. HTML::Form was needed too. Now it runs (works even!)
if I run it with perl. if I try to execute the get_flash_videos script
directly then I still get the ": No such file or directory" error.
Is there any chance we can re-open this issue until that ": No such file or
directory" error never shows up again? That really is an infuriating error
message. It not only says nothing about the real problem, but is even somewhat
misleading. I've had a non-working get-flash-videos for over half a year now,
and the only thing in the way was installing a couple perl modules. And now
that it works when invoked from perl, I have no (easy) way to figure out why it
won't run normally. This message makes it incredibly difficult for users to
help themselves.

Yes HTML::Form is needed but only if you have libwww-perl >= 6.0, when this was
removed from libwww-perl and made a separate module. The WWW::Mechanize should
have a dependency on HTML::Form, if not this is a packaging fault, not a gfv
fault. From OpenBSD ports Makefile, your see the p5-HTML-Form in the runtime
dependencies..
BUILD_DEPENDS= ${RUN_DEPENDS} \
devel/p5-Test-Memory-Cycle \

I have re-opened for now, and back to the original problem. The error message
your getting is specific to your installation, you mean a message like this
$ ./get_flash_videos
ksh: ./get_flash_videos: No such file or directory
I changed the first line in the file from #!/usr/bin/env perl to
#!/usr/bin/env1 perl
If I try on OpenBSD
/usr/bin/env perl get_flash_videos
That works, if try
/usr/bin/env1 perl get_flash_videos
That gives
ksh: /usr/bin/env1: not found
So if you type
/usr/bin/env perl get_flash_videos
Does that give an error on your system if so do
$ ls -l /usr/bin/env
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root bin 7352 Feb 22 15:10 /usr/bin/env
If not present with same permission that doesn't match other systems, it could
be located
in /bin instead, or something hasn't been installed. Looking around,
#!/usr/bin/env is used in
a lot of scripts, and I found Gentoo examples.
$ cat ss
#!/usr/bin/env perl
print "ok\n";
$ ./ss
ok
$
Type the above simple file and then chmod +x ss then run does that work, if it
doesn't. It your system setup, and there are many way to go wrong.

/usr/bin/env works:
~/downloads/get-flash-videos $ /usr/bin/env perl get_flash_videos
get_flash_videos version 1.25 (http://code.google.com/p/get-flash-videos/)
Usage: get_flash_videos [OPTION]... URL...
get_flash_videos [OPTION]... search string
Downloads videos from the web pages given in URL or searches Google Video
Search for 'search string'. If the URL contains characters such as '&' you
will need to quote it.
Options:
--add-plugin Add a plugin from a URL.
-d --debug Print extra debugging information.
-f --filename Filename to save the video as.
-p --play Start playing the video once enough has been downloaded.
--player Player to use for the video (default: mplayer -really-quiet).
--proxy Proxy to use, use host:port for SOCKS, or URL for HTTP.
--subtitles Download subtitles where available.
-q --quiet Be quiet (only print errors).
-r --quality Quality to download at (high|medium|low, or site specific).
-u --update Update to latest version.
-v --version Print version.
-y --yes Say yes to any questions (don't prompt for any information).
-i --info Print out info about video instead of downloading.
Also the other thing works:
~/downloads/get-flash-videos $ nano temp.sh
~/downloads/get-flash-videos $ chmod a+x temp.sh
~/downloads/get-flash-videos $ ./temp.sh
ok
get_flash_videos, still not working:
~/downloads/get-flash-videos $ ./get_flash_videos
: No such file or directory

Running out of things to try. Append two together...
cat get_flash_videos >>temp.sh
then try
./temp.sh
then try removing line 3 the second #! line, does either or both work. Should
display ok, followed by help text.

I had this problem too (As well as "Can't locate Crypt/Blowfish_PP.pm"). Perl
is just a garbage language. It's really worthless ancient scum. Take it to the
landfill.
I used this guide to fix the Module::Find issue. Logged into CPAN as root and
installed Module::Find.
http://www.linuxweblog.com/perl-modules-install
cpan> install Module::Find
I used this guide to fix the Blowfish issue.

After all that fun, it doesn't seem to be able to download the correct video.
Here is my example:
$ perl get_flash_videos-1.24-git-20130307
"http://www.hulu.com/watch/478858?playlist_id=1040&asset_scope=movies"
Developers, please don't use worthless shit languages from the 1980's. We have
superior scripting languages today that don't suck. Merry Christmas

As a caveat, my example was only tested on one website. Hopefully I can find a
similar program written in a superior language like Ruby. The developers should
know I appreciate your efforts, but I just strongly disagree with making end
users suffer, and retroactively suffering yourself.
